Dear friends,
During the initial stages of our project, we discovered that rural and tribal communities in India placed little importance on leprosy and lacked sufficient knowledge about the disease. To address this issue, we organized awareness and education programs in the rural and tribal villages of the Tiruvannamalai district.
Our team actively engaged with young men, women, and elders, focusing particularly on women and children in our service area.We also conducted home visits to assess community members for symptoms of leprosy. The leprosy eradication project we implemented in our target area has significantly raised awareness about leprosy and its related issues. Our team is committed to ensuring that community members are well-informed about leprosy and its symptoms.
These initiatives have made meaningful and respectful contributions to the community. Thank you for your support and guidance in these efforts.
Best regards,
M. KANNAMMAL
